    That's The Way Boys Are Composer(s): Mark Barkan - Ben Raleigh First release by: Lesley Gore - 1964



    (hey-ay-ay, hey-ay-ay) When I’m with my guy and he watches all the pretty girls go by-y-y (hey-ay-ay) And I feel so hurt deep inside I wish that I could die (hey-ay-ay) Not a word do I sa-a-y, I just look the other wa-a-a-a-ay ‘cause that’s the way boys are (that’s the way boys are) That’s the way boys are (that’s the way boys are) When he treats me rough and he acts as though he doesn’t really ca-a-are (hey-ay-ay) Well I never tell him that he is so unfair (hey-ay-ay) Plus he loves me and I know it but he’s just afraid to sho-o-o-o-ow it ‘cause that’s the way boys are (that’s the way boys are) That’s the way boys are (that’s the way boys are) Oh oh when he wants to be alone, I just let him be ‘cause I know that soon enough he will come back to-a me-e When we have a fight I think that I won’t see him anymore (hey-ay-ay) The-en before I know it there he is standin’ at my door (hey-ay-ay) Well I let him kiss me then ‘cause I know he wants me ba-a-ack again That’s the way boys are (that’s the way boys are) Yes the way boys are (that’s the way boys are) Oh I love him (that’s the way boys are) Well now that’s the way boys are (that’s the way boys are) I said that’s the way boys are (that’s the way boys are)

    Cadeau
    ((Adapted from: No Charge (by Melba Montgomery) - 1974))
    ((Danish Version: Ingen Regning (by Peter Belli) - 1978))
    Composer(s): Harlan Howard - Marie Laforêt
    Performer(s): Marie Laforêt - 1974



    Marie Laforêt:
    Hier soir, dans la cuisine
    je préparais le dîner, quand mon petit garçon est entré
    Il m'a tendu un morceau de papier griffonné
    J'ai essuyé mes mains sur mon tablier
    et je l'ai lu
    Et voici ce qu'il disait

    L'enfant:
    Pour avoir fait mon lit toute la semaine 3 francs
    Pour avoir été aux commissions 1 franc
    Pour avoir surveillé le bébé pendant que toi tu allais aux commissions 1 franc 25
    Pour avoir descendu la corbeille à papiers 75 centimes
    Pour avoir remonté la corbeille à papiers 1 franc et 10 centimes
    Pour avoir arrosé les fleurs sur le balcon 25 centimes
    Total 9 francs et 85 centimes

    Marie Laforêt:
    Je l'ai regardé, il se tortillait en mâchant son crayon
    et une foule de souvenirs sont revenus à ma mémoire
    Alors j'ai repris son crayon, j'ai retourné la feuille et voilà ce que j'ai écrit

    Marie Laforêt:
    Pour neuf mois de patience et douze heures de souffrance
    Cadeau
    Pour tant de nuits de veille, surveillant ton sommeil
    Cadeau
    Pour les tours de manège, les jouets, le collège
    Cadeau
    Et quand on fait le tour, le total de mon amour
    C'est Cadeau

    Marie Laforêt:
    Quand il a eu fini de lire, il avait un gros chagrin dans les yeux
    Il a levé la tête et a dit

    "M'Man, je t'aime très beaucoup"

    Il a repris son papier, l'a retourné, et en grosses, grosses lettres, a marqué

    "Cadeau"

    Marie Laforêt:
    Et quand on fait le tour, le total de l'amour
    C'est Cadeau, C'est Cadeau

    Fairly In The Money Now
    Composer(s): Tommy Tate; The Torpedoes
    Performer(s): The Undertones



    Tommy always said he'd make it one day
    Lead singer in a top show band
    So with some friends made up tunes to play
    Tommy Tate and the Torpedoes began

    Soon they were the rave of all the high school hops
    And satin suits all dressed to kill
    Soon Tommy's boys became top of the pops
    But then the money came over the hill
    But then the money came over the hill

    All the cash to spend on their girlfriends
    Howard Hughes is missed a turn there
    And then their interests
    Are manager's requests
    They all bought their ranches

    Hypnotised by every part that arrived
    Higher prices for indifferent songs
    But never the less Tommy's into success
    So his Torpedoes kept plodding on
    And his Torpedoes kept plodding on

    That's The Way
    Composer(s): Alan Blaikley - K. Howard
    Performer(s): The Honeycombs



    That's the way we should begin it
    Take my hand I lead you oh so gently
    That's the way you set me dreaming
    That's the way I hit the ceiling
    With your size and in your eyes
    I see that that's the way we'll fall in love

    Tell me (tell me)
    That you really love me (I love you)
    Tell me you really need me
    So I am sure

    That's the way you set me singing
    That's the way are those bells ringing
    Though you're shy you know I really wants you
    All the way don't keep me waiting
    No delay, no, no, no hesitating
    Here we go just keep on holding tight
    And that's the way we'll fall in love

    Tell me (tell me)
    That you really love me (I love you)
    Tell me you really need me
    So I am sure

    That's the way there's nothing in it
    That's the way we should begin it
    Take my hand I lead you oh so gently
    That's the way we'll fall in love
    We'll fall in love
    We'll fall in love

    Cadê Você Composer(s): João Donato - Chico Buarque Performer(s): João Donato; Rosa Passos; Jose Luiz Mazziotti



    Me dê notícia de você
    Eu gosto um pouco de chorar
    A gente quase não se vê
    Me deu vontade de lembrar

    Me leve um pouco com você
    Eu gosto de qualquer lugar
    A gente pode se entender
    E não saber o que falar

    Seria um acontecimento
    Mas lógico que você some
    No dia em que o seu pensamento
    Me chamou

    Eu chamo o seu apartamento
    Não mora ninguém com esse nome
    Que linda a cantiga do vento
    Já passou

    A gente quase não se vê
    Eu só queria me lembrar
    Me dê notícia de você
    Me deu vontade de voltar

    Goin' home, late last night
    suddenly I got a fright
    Yeah I looked throught the window and surprised what I saw
    Fairy boots were dancin' with a dwarf, all right now!

    Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me
    yeah I saw it, I saw it, I tell you no lies
    Yeah Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me
    I saw it, I saw it with my own two eyes, well all right now!

    Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me
    yeah I saw it, I saw it, I tell you no lies
    Yeah Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me
    I saw it, I saw it with my own two eyes, all right now!

    So I went to the doctor, see what he could give me
    he said "Son, son, you've gone too far.
    'cause smokin' and trippin' is all that you do
    Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaah!

    I don't know how I'm gonna tell you
    I can't play with you no more
    I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me
    My friend, the boy next door
    I can't believe what people saying
    You're gonna let your hair hang down
    I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long
    You're in the darker side of town

    And when I'm out I see you walking
    Why don't your eyes see me
    Could it be you've found another game to play
    What did mama say to me

    That's the Way
    Oh, that's The Way it ought to be
    Yeah, yeah, mama say
    That's the Way it ought to stay

    And yesterday I saw you standing by the river
    And weren't those tears that filled your eyes
    And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying
    Had they got you hypnotized?

    And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers
    But all that lives is born to die
    And so I say to you that nothing really matters
    And all you do is stand and cry

    I don't know what to say about it
    When all you ears have turned away
    But now's the time to look and look again at what you see
    Is that the way it ought to stay?

    That's the way... That's the way it oughta be
    Oh don't you know now
    Mama said... that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah

    Cade la neve
    tu non verrai questa sera
    Cade la neve
    non ci vedremo lo so
    La città che dorme
    si copre di bianco
    intanto il mio cuore
    si veste di buio

    Questa sera non verrai
    invano aspetterò
    ma cade la neve
    lentamente dal cielo

    Cade la neve
    tu non verrai questa sera
    Cade la neve
    non ci vedremo lo so

    Nella via deserta
    nemmeno una voce
    mi sento morire
    non mi sei vicina

    Questa sera non verrai
    invano aspetterò
    ma cade la neve
    lentamente dal cielo
    Ma cade la neve

    Faire Face
    Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



    J'n'ai pas toujours chanté des chansons
    On s'est divisé autour de mon nom
    Parfois la colère m'a glissé des doigts
    Mais ce que j'ai fais c'était bien je crois

    J'ai défié les hommes qui truquaient leur jeux
    J'ai croisé la mort inscrite dans leurs yeux
    J'ai connu la peur je l'ai maîtrisée
    Et la moindre erreur j'ai su l'exploiter

    À chaque coin de rue se cache une guerre
    Moi j'aime bien savoir à qui j'ai à faire

    Faire face
    Seuls les aigles voient le soleil en face
    J'ai toujours su faire face
    Faire face pour me faire une place

    J'ai souillé le lit des plus belles femmes
    Mes mains dans la nuit corrompaient leurs âmes
    Que l'on m'ai sifflé, trahi ou aimé
    L'important pour moi c'était d'exister

    Le chagrin la haine la peur
    Ou même l'amitié
    Sont des vieux mots
    Qu'il faut enterrer

    Faire face
    Seuls les aigles voient le soleil en face

    Faire face
    J'ai toujours su faire face

    Faire face pour me faire une place

    Oh ! Faire face

    Faire, faire, faire
    Faire face
    Seuls les aigles voient le soleil en face

    Oui faire face
    Seuls les aigles voient le soleil en face

    When she don't sweet talk anymore
    Her kiss ain't like it was before
    It's time you added up the score, my friend
    That's the beginning of the end

    She keeps you waiting for a date
    Makes no excuse for being late
    Wake up and recognize your fate, my friend
    That's the beginning of the end

    What she's doing to you, she did to me
    But I was in love, so how could I see
    You'd better get wise, you'd better beware
    Or one of these days you'll turn around and she won't be there

    Don't say that you were never told
    I know that character of old
    When she starts straying from the fold, my friend
    That's the beginning of the end

    What she's doing to you, she did to me
    But I was in love, so how could I see
    You'd better get wise, you'd better beware

    Composer(s): Fito Páez
    Performer(s): Fito Páez



    Comienza el día
    y una luz sentimental
    nos envuelve, se va
    la fabulosa sinfonía universal
    nos envuelve, vuelve, se va
    tango sexo, sexo y amor
    tanto tango, tanto dolor
    mi vida gira en contradicción
    jamas conquisté mi corazón
    mas donde estaba cuando
    paso lo que paso
    hablándome al espejo solo?

    Vengo de un barrio
    tan mezquino y criminal
    quizá te queme, queme, quizás
    vengo de un barrio
    siempre a punto de estallar
    quizá te queme, queme, quizás
    si de nada sirve vivir
    buscas algo porque morir
    el tiempo me ha enseñado a mirar
    a veces me ha enseñado a callar
    donde estabas cuando paso lo que paso
    hablándole al espejo sola
    es tanta la tristeza y es tan ruin
    que celebro la experiencia feliz
    la estupidez del mundo
    nunca pudo y nunca podrá
    arrebatar la sensualidad

    Busco mi piedra filosofal
    en los 7 locos
    en el mar
    en el cadáver exquisito
    en no tener piedad
    en la quinta escénica de la música
    dentro mío, dentro en el amor

    Y el...
    odio tener que pensar
    preferiría tu sonrisa a toda la verdad
    avanzo un paso
    retrocedo y vuelvo a preguntar
    que algo cambie
    para no cambiar jamas
    todo es imperfecto amor
    ...y obvio

    Performer(s): Pete Sears



    How long, Jack, till we get to Singapore?
    How long, Joe, did we sign on for?
    Better keep bailing while the rain pours down
    The day crews sleeping and the night crews drowned

    Fair to even odds, I wager
    Fair to even odds, I lay
    If we make it till the sunrise
    We can make it through the day

    Caught at the border running forty-fives
    A shot in the back could mean goodbye
    You know I have been shot before
    And I didn't lay down and die, no

    Fair to even odds, I wager
    Fair to even odds, I give
    Fair to even I recover
    Fair to even odds I live

    Lie around and clench my teeth
    Until my jaws are sore
    Maybe give up cigarettes
    Till my lungs don't hurt no more

    Shot in the back and drawing flies
    Flat on my belly with bloodshot eyes
    This is the life I love the best
    Devil be welcome to the rest

    Fair to even odds, I wager
    Fair to even I adore
    Away, away, go from my window
    Don't you bother me no more

    Just how far is this day risen?
    Move my head so I can see
    Hear the hot sweet winds of heaven
    Thick and red as blood to me

    Fair to even odds, I wager
    Fair to even odds, I lay
    If I make it till the sunrise
    I can make it through the day

    I can hear the hangman's hornpipe
    Blowing high and low and strong
    Fare to even odds, dear Annie
    Play no sweeter when I'm gone

    Well I was sixteen
    And sick of school
    I didn't know what I wanted to do
    I bought a guitar
    I got the fever
    That's rock 'n roll

    I played at parties
    Played in bars
    I spent my money buyin' new guitars
    I screamed my heart out
    But how I loved it
    That's rock 'n roll

    Well, come on everybody
    Get down and get with it
    Come on everybody
    Get down and get with it
    Come on everybody
    Get down, that's rock 'n roll

    And the heat
    Have got your heart pounding right with
    The beat
    Don't try to fight it
    Just get excited
    That's rock 'n roll

    Well it's the roadies
    And the crowd
    It's when the band's playin' way too loud
    Your hips are shakin'
    Ain't no mistakin'
    That's rock 'n roll

    Well, come on everybody
    Get down and get with it
    Come on everybody
    Get down and get with it
    Come on everybody
    Get down, that's rock 'n roll

    Now don't you worry
    'Bout bein' a star
    It doesn't matter who or what you are
    Just get the rhythm
    And let it fill ya
    That's rock 'n roll

    And if you feel it
    Clap your hands
    Let's see some sweat for the boys in the band
    Now lemme hear ya
    Lemme hear ya
    That's rock 'n roll

    Come on everybody

    Come on everybody
    Get down, that's rock 'n roll

    Tu sed transubstancia mi sudor
    en vino que bebemos en cada beso
    Tus pies no se hunden
    en los lagos de mis lágrimas
    Tu saliva siembra la luz
    en la noche de mis ojos
    Tu voz resucita mis músculos dormidos
    mis latidos sepultados
    Tus manos, cuando me tocan, curan
    mis heridas más invisibles
    Tu hambre fecunda peces
    que se multiplican como deseos de humedad
    en el múltiple pan de mi cuerpo
    Cada vez que me amas
    es un milagro

    Fair Margaret And Sweet William
    (aka Lady Margaret And Sweet William)
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Pete Seeger;
    and various other artists



    Sweet William rose one morning bright
    And dressed himself in blue
    "Come tell to me the long lost love
    Between Lady Margaret and you"

    "I know no harm of Lady Margaret," said he
    "And I hope she knows none of me
    But tomorrow morning before eight o'clock
    Lady Margaret my bride shall be"

    As Lady Margaret was in her chamber high
    A-combing up her hair
    She spied sweet William and his bride
    As they to the church drew near

    She threw down her ivory comb
    And tossed back her hair
    And from the room a fair lady came
    That was seen in there no more

    The day being gone and the night being come
    When most men were asleep
    Sweet William spied Lady Margaret's ghost
    A-standing at his bed feet

    "How do you like your bed?" she said
    "And how do you like your sheet?
    And how do you like the fair lady
    That lies in your arms asleep?"

    "Very well do I like my bed," said he
    "Very well do I like my sheet
    But better do I like the fair lady
    That is standing at my bed feet"

    The night being gone and the day being come
    When most men were awake
    Sweet William said he was troubled in his head
    From a dream he had last night

    He called his weary waiting maids
    By one, by two, by three
    And last of all, with his bride's consent
    Lady Margaret he went to see

    He went unto the parlor door
    He knocked until he made things ring
    But none was so ready as her own dear brother
    To arise and let him in

    "Is Lady Margaret in the parlour?" said he
    "Or is she in the hall
    Or is she in her chamber high
    Among the gay ladies all?"

    "Lady Margaret is not in the parlour," said he
    "She is neither in the hall
    She is in her coffin
    And a-lying by the wall"

    "Tear down, tear down, those milk white sheets
    They are made of silk so fine
    That I may kiss Lady Margaret's cheek
    For ofttimes she has kissed mine"

    The first that he kissed was her rosy cheek
    The next was her dimpled chin
    The last of all was her clay-cold lips
    That pierced his heart within

    "Tear down, tear down those milk white sheets
    They are made of silk so fine
    Today they hang around Lady Margaret's corpse
    And tomorrow they will hang around mine"

    Lady Margaret died of pure, pure love
    Sweet William died of sorrow
    They are buried in one burying ground
    Both side and side together

    Out of her grave grew a red rose
    And out of his a briar
    They grew in a twining true lover's knot
    The rose and the green briar

    That's Right (You're Not From Texas)
    Composer(s): Lyle Lovett - Willis Alan Ramsey - Alison Rogers
    Performer(s): Lyle Lovett



    You say you're not from Texas
    Man as if I couldn't tell
    You think you pull your boots on right
    And wear your hat so well

    So pardon me my laughter
    'Cause I sure do understand
    Even Moses got excited
    When he saw the promised land

    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    But Texas wants you anyway

    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    But Texas wants you anyway

    See I was born and raised in Texas
    And it means so much to me
    Though my girl comes from down in Georgia
    We were up in Tennessee

    And as we were driving down the highway
    She asked me baby what's so great
    How come you're always going on
    About your Lone Star State

    I said that's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    But Texas wants you anyway

    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    But Texas wants you anyway

    Oh the road it looked so lovely
    As she stood there on the side
    And she grew smaller in my mirror
    As I watched her wave goodbye

    Those boys from Carolina
    They sure enough could sing
    But when they came on down to Texas
    We all showed them how to swing

    Now David's on the radio
    And old Champ's still on the guitar
    And Uncle Walt he's home with Heidi
    Hiding in her loving arms

    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    But Texas wants you anyway

    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    But Texas wants you anyway

    They're OK in Oklahoma
    Up in Arkansas they're fair
    But those old folks in Missouri
    They don't even know you're there

    But at a dance hall down in Texas
    That's the finest place to be
    The women they all look beautiful
    And their men will buy your beer for free

    And they'll say that's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    But Texas wants you anyway

    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    But Texas wants you anyway

    So won't you let me help you Mister
    Just pull your hat down the way I do
    And buy your pants just a little longer
    And next time somebody laughs at you

    You just tell 'em you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    But Texas wants you anyway

    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    That's right you're not from Texas
    But Texas wants you anyway

    Cada Vez Composer(s): Carlos Rossi - Robby Ferrante - Al Stillman Performer(s): Javier Solís



    Cada vez, cada vez vida mía que nos vemos no quiero partir
    todo el oro del mundo daría por poderme quedar junto a ti
    El azul de tus ojos tan bellos lo guardé dentro del corazón
    cada vez que me alejo de ellos cada vez es mayor mi pasión

    Y aunque lejos de aquí yo me debo marchar
    tú eres ya para mí el gran amor, amor que nunca he de olvidar
    Cada vez que yo debo dejarte cada vez mi tristeza es mayor
    hasta el día que venga a buscarte a entregarte por siempre mi amor

    Y aunque lejos de aquí yo me debo marchar
    tú eres ya para mí el gran amor, amor que nunca he de olvidar
    Cada vez que yo debo dejarte cada vez mi tristeza es mayor
    hasta el día que venga a buscarte a entregarte por siempre mi amor
    a entregarte por siempre mi amor, a entregarte por siempre mi amor

    Fair Hawaii
    Composer(s): James Fulton Kutz
    Performer(s): Alfred Apaka



    Enchanting is the scene when the silvry moon is beaming
    On murm'ring waters at my dear Waikiki
    The twinkling stars are bright and of your sweet charms
    I'm dreaming All my love will live for you eternally

    When far away sweetheart I am always of you thinking
    Of that sweet day dear when first I met you
    Love called me to your arms as the golden sun was sinking
    'Till we meet again, to you I will be true

    Fair Hawaii Oh dear Hawaii
    Lovely isle of the Southern sea
    Fair Hawaii Oh dear Hawaii
    Fondest mem'ries you bring to me

    That's My Weakness Now
    Composer(s): Bud Green - Sam H. Stept
    Performer(s): Helen Kane
    and multiple other artists



    Love, love, love, love
    Look what you've done to me!
    The things I never missed
    Are things I can't resist!

    Oh, love, love, love, love
    Isn't it plain to see
    I just had a change of heart
    What can it be?

    He's got eyes of blue
    I never cared for eyes of blue
    But he's got eyes of blue
    And that's my weakness now!

    He's got curly hair
    I never cared for curly hair
    But he's got curly hair
    And that's my weakness now!

    Oh, my! Oh, me!
    Oh, I should be good, I would be good
    But, gee!

    He likes to bill and coo
    And I never cared to bill and coo
    But he likes to bill and coo
    So that's my weakness now!

    He likes a saxophone
    I never cared for a saxophone
    But he likes a saxophone
    And that's my weakness now!

    He likes those rainy days
    And I never cared for a rainy day
    But he likes a rainy day
    And that's my weakness now!

    Oh, let it rain, let it pour
    'Cause I think he knows just what it's rainin' for!

    He likes a long good-night
    And I never had a long good-night
    But he likes a long good-night
    So that's my weakness now!

    And he likes boop-boop-a-doop
    And I never cared for boop-boop-a-doop
    But he likes a boop-boop-a-doop
    So, that's my weakness now!

    And he likes butt'n dutt'n da-da-da
    I never cared for butt'n dutt'n da-da-da
    But he likes but-dut-da-da
    So, that's my weakness now!

    What's more, what's more
    Oh, I think he knows what but-dut-da is for!

    And he likes boop-boop-a-doop
    I never cared for a boop-boop-a-doop
    But he likes to boop-boop-a-doop
    That's my weakness now!

    Ooh, that's my weakness now!

    Come And Buy
    Composer(s): Arthur Brown; Vincent Crane
    Performer(s): Arthur Brown



    God-brother.....you lie...

    When you see a fire burning inside your minds eye
    Grieve/Breathe(???) the meaning of the flames before you let them die
    Let them burn you through until you know that you can fly
    Twisting - turning - falling - burning
    Roaring balls of fire
    Eyes that see them have no need
    Of guides to span the wire
    Let the flames burn you right through
    To low the burns through higher

    Come and see
    Come and buy

    I can sell you the love
    I can buy you the morning sun

    You can buy seven/sand/sun(???) from the morning
    From suns to the set in the morning for tea
    Pockets of love but nothing to buy
    Crystals of beauty - the mountain - the sea
    Something that ain't through a mind full of pride
    Going hands with the sun and set yourself free
    Come and see
    Come and buy
    Come and buy...buy my love

    Sleeping sunsets sweat their beauty
    Melting at your feet
    Take your mind through sacred fire
    Leaving you complete

    Let the flames burn you so hard
    There can be no re-treat
    Floating - drooping - looping - turning
    Roaring balls of fire
    Light the pathway you must take
    To drag you from the myre
    Sooth the darkness from your feet
    Burn down your funeral pyre

    Come and see
    Come and buy

    I can sell you the love
    I can sell you the morning sun

    You can buy seven/sand/sun(???) from the morning
    From suns to the set in the morning for tea
    Pockets of love but nothing to buy
    Crystals of beauty - the mountain - the sea
    Something that ain't through a mind full of pride
    Going hands with the sun and set yourself free

    Come and see
    Come and buy
    Buy my fire
    Buy my fire

    Eyes are glaring on your face
    Watching you below
    Take the sun that sweats at midnight
    Burning you below

    See the sun as it sweats with beauty
    Burning through the fire
    Feeding on your soul - so deep
    Fire
    Come and buy my
    Fire
    Come and buy my fire
    Come and buy...
    Buy my fire...

    Why is it so cold down here?
    So cold...!!
    Let me in...
    The price of your entry is sin
    Go away - then return
    Know which fase you have to turn
    Eyes are glaring
    Voice's flaring
    Woooaaah!
